Young Attempt, by librawoman
|
Walking out into the field
crying tears I could not shield,
I held a knife within my hand
because it was life I couldn't stand.
When I got next to a big tree
I knew it was time to kill me.
On the ground was where I'd lie
so that would be the place I'd die.
As i was there, I lifted my shirt
because it was death with which I'd flirt.
I held the knife into the air
about to die without a care.
I was to thrust it right in my middle
toying with life like a brand new fiddle.
But then I came to realize
I never told my family goodbyes.
I finally decided not to do it;
I was too scared to go through it.
I'll always remember that day spent
surviving from my young attempt. |
